Fashion | 'My VIP Wardrobe'


So as I mentioned in the 'About Me' section, I am a freelance makeup artist and I thought it'd be fun to occasionally post about the work I have been doing!

Recently I had the opportunity to work with the creator of this fantastic new fashion business 'My VIP Wardrobe'. Myself and another local makeup artist, Abbie Youell, were asked to apply makeup on several of the models for the photos that you can see on the site and I had a lot of fun working with such a great team!

 

So what is My VIP Wardobe? I feel this quote from the website explains it perfectly! "My VIP Wardrobe is a fashion rental service, offering a range of high street and mid-market dresses to rent hassle-free and at affordable prices."
This is perfect for you ladies who hate wearing the same dress twice! It also gives you a chance to wear a beautiful, designer dress that may be just out of your price range to buy at full price.

Cruelty-Free News | NYX Cosmetics Sells To L'Oreal!



www.nyxcosmetics.com

NYX Cosmetics is selling to L'Oreal and as a supporter of cruelty-free cosmetics and a fan of NYX I am completely saddened by this.

This is another company added to the list that in recent years has decided to stop being cruelty-free (MAC, Urban Decay, Revlon etc.) and I find it a shame thats so many are turning their backs on their original company morals.
